Those  awful filmy things! Bah...glad for our solid albs and gothic 
vestments.  :)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
I think, though, that in the fullness of time, Ascension has seen them  all
including lace albs and Roman and fiddleback chasubles.
 
I don't mind lace albs if they match, but I don't like noticeably  different
clashing lace alb styles for the three sacred ministers.
 
The switch was made about 15 years ago by the local Tridentine
Riters to plain white albs (always worn with amices) about 15 years  ago.
The story at the time was that the lace albs had become too  expensive.
 
Re:  Chasubles - The Art Institute of Chicago had a wonderful  exposition
of Eucharistic vestments through the centuries.  They put out a  catalog
of the exposition that I suspect is still available.  A lot of the  
vestments
were really stunning.
 
On the vestment subject, the richest collection of vestments in the
USA that I have seen is at Saint Mark's, Philadelphia.
